Abstract (en)
The invention provides a simple method and apparatus for tracking image recording device (110) motion using a light field. The invention locates the image recording device's position and orientation in each frame very precisely by checking the radiance seen along lines captured in previous frames. The invention provides an interactive system that provides the operator with feedback, to capture a sequence of frames that sufficiently cover the light field, to provide sufficient data for reconstruction of three-dimensional structures. <IMAGE>
